ReplyDeleteReligious item feared to be bomb causes plane diversion.
In this news story a 17-year old Jewish boy was on a US airways express flight and was using tefillin(a set of small black boxes containing biblical passages that are attached to leather straps). This led to a alert since a passenger on the plane thought that the device was a bomb. The plane travelling form New York to Kentucky had to be diverted to Philadelphia. Fox news, BBC news and NY Daily news reported the same story in different ways.
All the news networks describe the device, although BBC news describes it in detail. BBC news has a very short article on this story and connects this story to an alleged bomb plot last month. BBC news leaves out important information like where the flight was coming from or going to.
The NY Daily news article is relatively longer and includes information like the number of passangers and crew members on the flight and the names of the airport the flight was coming from and going to. It also has a picture of the tefillin.
The Fox news article is even longer and in detail. It provides important information like the number of passengers and crew members and the time at which the incident happened. This article contains all the important information and also tells us about what happens after the plane lands in Philadelphia.
I think different news networks cover the same story in differnet ways. While all of them cover the basic information, only a few explain the story in detail.
